Modern Seating

As formal dining rooms become less common, people are searching for ways to style a casual dinner table. One solution: replace a couple of chairs with benches, like this one from Target. The simple and charming piece of furniture comfortably seats two, and the warm wood finish gives off a rustic countryside feeling. Plus, the sturdy bench isn’t limited to the eating area; place it against the wall for instant seating in any area of your house. Available at Target; $45.99.
